Key Features
Location
The Feathers at Brockton was purchased by the current owner in 2015 when it had fallen into disrepair. The owner then embarked upon a bespoke redevelopment of the property using quality materials, developing the property to the highest standard into something that is unrivalled in the surrounding area. The property has been lovingly restored; it is built of stone and brick with rendered and colourwashed elevations under clay tile roof. Four interconnecting trading areas on various levels feed from the central servery. Open kitchen and excellent ancillary areas. At first and second floors are seven quality, individual, en suite letting bedrooms. The business is currently set up as a lock-up premises, however there is scope to rearrange the rooms to provide owner’s/manager’s accommodation. The property also benefits from two separate outdoor trading areas and ample parking. The renovation of the property has been undertaken with great attention to detail and presents an excellent opportunity for new owners/operators to drive the business forward, taking advantage of its location in this affluent area.
The village of Brockton sits astride the B4378 at the edge of the Shropshire Hills, an Area of Outstanding Beauty between Wenlock Edge and Brown Clee. The area is renowned for its outstanding rural aspect and range of outdoor attractions, being excellent walking and cycling country. It is close to the nearby towns of Much Wenlock (5 miles), Craven Arms and Telford (12 miles), Ludlow (16 miles) and the city of Shrewsbury (17 miles). It is also within easy motoring distance of the West Midlands conurbation, making it a popular residential location.
